Absolutely useless and awful. A complete waste of time and money whose only saving grace is that it's a 20 minute read, so the suffering is short and you can get on with looking for a better informational book about business bookkeeping.

This "book" is only 67 pages of large type and broad spacing. I could write 67 pages on how bad this thing is.

The subtitle of "Step by step guide to bookkeeping principles and basic bookkeeping for small businesses" is a spectacular example of misdirection.

1, It's not really step by step. It reads as if you happened to audit a single-day lecture of a Basic Accounting class, lacking any foundation, context or reference points re: terminology, goals and basics. It lacks any contextual framework, informative text, and has absolutely zero referential examples.
2. It actually fails to articulate and define these alleged "principles", and does not offer any real world contextual examples to the reader.
3. No topic gets more than one page of attention or explanation, and no information on when one bookkeeping method or practice should be used vs. another.
4. It provides no visual aids: no sample balance sheet, P&L or general ledger. Rather, visual aids include a picture of a laptop, a calculator, a handwritten ledger book page that could be from the 1950's, and a picture of a tax form written IN GERMAN.

I could go on and on, but I'd likely have a stroke.

Not sure what disappoints most: how awful this one is; that I actually paid money for it; or that people actually took time to review this and gave it any kind of positive review.

Save your time and money - this one is no good.
